I'd say as long as he's healthy and growing, the only difference it makes is in his mama's comfort (i.e. more being tied to nursing or whatever, than you may want). I have a friend whose 3 year old was probably only 50-50.

I'm going with other it is somewhere between 75% table food 25% breast milk and 50/50. That being said, with both DS and DD I was pregnant by the time they hit 18 months, so it hurt/hurts to nurse sometimes, so I tended to push solids a bit more.

I know by the time DS was 20 months or so it was around 90% solids because I had weaned him down to only nursing once a day, though once his sister was born when he was 23 months old he went back up to about 25% breast milk again.

With DD she just turned 18 months and is probably around 50/50 most days, but some days it is definitely closer to 75/25 and I am working on making it that most days, just because it hurts to nurse right now, so I prefer to do it only 2 to 4 times a day, not 20 times a day like DD would prefer.

DD turned 2 in July and she weaned a month prior and she was at 90% table food, 10% BM. Now, it's 100% table food.

I said 25% table food, more or less. She can eat a good deal at a meal and snacks on other foods as well throughout the day but still snacks at the breast too plus at least one big nursing a day and she nurses at night. She is 21mo.

I feel better hearing at least a couple toddlers are still primarily getting their calories from breastmilk!

Our doctor weighed DS the other day when we went in to check on another issue. He hadn't gained any weight in a month (he doesn't get very precise with weights but it looked like he could have even lost a few ounces). Didn't worry me -- it's only been a month -- but he asked about his eating. When I said he doesn't eat much table food, he was like, well where is he getting all his calories from?!?! I said BM -- which I guess he was kind of shocked that he's still nursing hourly or so. He's pretty knowledgable about BF'ing and many (maybe most?) of his patients are pretty 'crunchy' but I got the impression that most kids DS's age aren't BF'ing quite so much. He wanted to do a follow-up appointment to talk about how to get him eating more food. I don't think he was overly concerned, he knows DS has been growing & developing well overall, in fact he may have just been trying to help *me* since obviously it takes a lot from me to nurse him so much. I guess I would like him to increase his table-food intake but I don't really see the point in talking to the doctor about it (not sure if I'll make that follow-up appointment)...

He will eat really well if I'm out of the house (I never leave pumped milk even on the rare occasions I'm gone 2-3 hours straight). And he'll eat a good dinner & evening snack when DH is home. He even eats quite a bit if we're on a playdate or out with friends. But when it's just me & him, he couldn't care less about table food, I can get him to eat maybe 3 bites of food all day long, and occasionally half a piece of fruit. He likes everything but just doesn't want to eat.

DS is 27 months and I nurse him for his nap (when I'm there) and approx. 3 times during the night (going to bed, at night once or twice and early breakfast). He started nursing less during the day when he cut all his molars. Whenever he has a growth spurt (I suspect he has one now) he nurses a bit more. He eats breakfast because I make him, lunch is usually good, although he flatout refused to eat yesterday, dinner is ok (and then I feed him some porridge before bed).

I didn't vote, because there was a big difference between 18 months and 2 years old.

I did vote, but I feel the same way. At 18 months it was at least 50/50, if not more like 75/25 breastmilk to table food. Now at 2, I'd say it's like 95% table food.

She's about 25% table food and 75% formula at 22mo. It's making me insane, but I can't get her to eat any more. She's on a prescription allergenic formula and we did move up to the non-infant version to get more calories in her. She healthy and growing, I'd just like to move her off of the formula (she didn't outgrow the dairy & soy allergies). I've tried coconut milk and other nut milks but she just doesn't drink enough of that, either.
